Abstract

In this chapter, modern approaches of synthetic micro-algal ecology have been focused to reach the industrial scale reality of biofuel feedstock production. Diversity of micro-algal species, screening for novel inherent traits, common nutrient requirements and growth complementarities, selection of a robust species for consortia development, physiology of monocultures, role of stoichiometric growth modeling in channelizing the metabolic flux for the cumulative production of high quality biomass from synthetic microalgal consortia, and scale up of the process for desirable production of high quality biomass are briefly described. To get the reality that how the changes in the community structure can make changes in the cumulative physiology and production of primary metabolites of biofuel interest has been explained in detail.
